Michaella McCollum STRIPS down to bikini in sizzling hot pictures

One half of the infamous “Peru Two”, McCollum was spotted this morning at John Lennon Airport dragging a hand-luggage sized wheelie bag and sipping on a Costa coffee as she made her way to the centre of Liverpool after the short flight from Belfast.

The 24-year-old, from County Tyrone in Northern Ireland, then checked into the ultra-trendy four-star Aloft Hotel in the city centre.

McCollum is approaching her first anniversary of being released on parole from prison in Peru after serving half of a six year sentence for attempting to smuggle 11kg of cocaine worth £1.5million in her luggage from Peru to Madrid with Glasgow native Melissa Reid when they were both 20-years-old in 2013.

McCollum is in 'advanced talks' to appear with fellow drugs mule Melissa Reid to be on Big Brother

Her trip to Liverpool comes a fortnight after it was revealed McCollum and her drugs mule pal Reid, who is now back in Glasgow, are in “advanced talks” with Big Brother producers to appear on the reality TV show.

Since the beginning of this year McCollum has been courting publicity, ramping it up last month when she was snapped a number of times on holiday in Spain in a variety of skimpy outfits.

During her visit to the Costa del Sol - nicknamed Costa del Crime for the number of British criminals escaping police - she was seen in a daring apple green swimsuit which showed off her gym-honed body.

The drugs mule was seen enjoying the beach as she checked her phone and flicked her long blonde hair while posing for the cameras.
